The usual definition of bias in ML papers is E[theta_estimator - theta]. That is explicitly a systematically wrong prediction.

In any case, the paper suggests that this "bias" or "prejudice" is better described as "truths I don't like". I'm asking if the author knows of any cases where they are actually not truthful. The paper does not suggest any, but maybe there are some?
